Relativistic viscoelastic fluid mechanics [PDF]
A detailed study is carried out for the relativistic theory of viscoelasticity which was recently constructed on the basis of Onsager's linear nonequilibrium thermodynamics.

We present a review of the chaotic hypothesis and discuss its applications to intermittency in statistical mechanics and fluid mechanics proposing a quantitative definition. Entropy creation rate is interpreted in terms of certain intermittency phenomena.

Mechanics of a Plant in Fluid Flow [PDF]
Plants live in constantly moving fluid, whether air or water. In response to the loads associated with fluid motion, plants bend and twist, often with great amplitude. These large deformations are not found in traditional engineering application and thus

The Fluid Mechanics of Ureteroscope Irrigation. [PDF]
Purpose: To develop a physical understanding of ureterorenoscopy irrigation, we derive mathematical models from basic physical principles and compare these predictions with the results of benchtop experiments.

Aerodynamics of two parallel bristled wings in low Reynolds number flow
Most of the smallest flying insects use bristled wings. It was observed that during the second half of their upstroke, the left and right wings become parallel and close to each other at the back, and move upward at zero angle of attack.

Production of Micron-Sized Particles of Bauxite by Circulating Pulverization Experiment
A novel process involving the production of micron-sized particles of bauxite by circulating pulverization experiment is proposed. This method is through high-pressure gas infiltration, uniform and equal stress loading, and overcoming tensile strength ...

Bidirectional wave-propelled capillary spinners
When a solid body floats at the interface of a vibrating liquid bath, the motion of the object generates outwardly propagating surface waves. We here demonstrate that chiral objects on a vibrating fluid interface are set into steady rotation, with the ...

A direct-hybrid CFD/CAA method based on lattice Boltzmann and acoustic perturbation equations
The accuracy of two direct coupled two-step CFD/CAA methods is discussed. For the flow field either a finite-volume (FV) method for the solution of the Navier–Stokes equations or a lattice Boltzmann (LB) method is coupled to a discontinuous Galerkin (DG)
